<br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br /> <br />~t Approval: <br /> <br />Manager Approved: <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />DATE: 5-28-96 <br />ITEM NO: E- 2 <br /> <br />Agenda Section: <br />Reports and <br />Recommendations <br /> <br />Item Description: <br /> <br />COMMUNICATION TOWERS - LAND USE REGULATION <br /> <br />Back&round <br /> <br />In the past year Roseville has become a target for communications towers companies. <br />The technology is rapidly changing. The highway corridors and the heavy <br />concentration of users near these corridors and the regional shopping center create this <br />demand. <br /> <br />A communication tower is now used primarily for telecommunications such as cell <br />phones, mobile radio phones, digital phones and computerized data transmission. These <br />towers may range from 60 feet up to 250 feet in height and need to be located on 1 to <br />1.5 mile radius. In Roseville, our planning, engineering and finance staff have been <br />reviewing requests for permits. <br /> <br />The City land use code allows towers to be constructed to any height, but requires the <br />approval of the Building Official or an appeal to the City Council. Most recently this <br />occurred at the site adjacent to the Roseville Water tower, wherein the applicant had <br />originally proposed a tower further north, within clear view of the Twin Lakes <br />redevelopment. <br /> <br />Because, under the current code, these new communication towers are permitted <br />anywhere within the city, it would be prudent to reconsider the city's land use <br />regulation of such towers. For example, the permit to allow all towers (except City of <br />Roseville controlled or owned "designated" tower sites - similar to the Burnsville <br />Ordinance- where the tower would be considered a permitted land use) could be <br />changed to a Conditional Use Permit and limited to specific zones such as business, <br />and industrial districts only. The strategy is to create a permitted "incentive" area to <br />place communications equipment on sites designated by the City with restrictive <br />covenants or lease conditions, but without need for further permits and hearings. A <br />draft ordinance, updated by the City Attorney's Office, is attached. On April 22, 1996 <br />the Mayor/Council reviewed the latest version and asked for a revisions to the <br />definition section prior to sending this to the Planning Commission for hearings. Those <br />changes have been made and are included in the attached proposed ordinance. <br /> <br />1 <br />
